[i]The collapse of the great empire was long, drawn out, and resulted in a Milky Way in chaos. It all began with the reign of Edrios "The Misguided Emperor", who attempted to institute laws for a more accepting and less Human-Oriented empire. These reforms would cause mass unrest amongst the upper class and other members of the royal family, and this would spark a chase for the throne once Edrios was assassinated. While the successor of Edrios would stop these reforms, the rivalry between these two parties would last throughout the final centuries of the empire.[/i]

[i]The Imperial Terran Civil War would change the outlook of the galaxy and would help draw the eventual lines of once the Empire completely fell. Those who supported Edrios's reforms, quite typically Nonhuman races, and those who supported the laws of the Old Empire. This Civil War would be quite short, lasting only ten years, but this would cause the first major loss of territory for the Empire, as New Jerusalem would declare independence from the warring sides. While the "Old Imperials" would eventually declare victory, they would institute some reforms to try and lower the unrest of the Nonhumans.[/i]

[i]The death of Justas would mark the official collapse of Imperial Terra, and the beginning of the Age of Chaos. The last 200 years would see thousands of Splinter nations declare independence from Imperial Terra, with most of these being absorbed by the other independent countries or reconquered by the Empire, but Justas's death would be the final nail in the coffin, and within 3 months of his death the Empire would officially fold, devolving into warring states and empires, all vying to be the next Empire or attempting to claim themselves as the legitimate successor.[/i]
